Master Sciences Du Vivant — Dual Master in Neuroscience

Université de Strasbourg, in Strasbourg, France, offers Master Sciences Du Vivant — Dual Master in Neuroscience, a life sciences program focused on the study of the nervous system. Neuroscience covers the structure and function of the brain and nervous system, spanning levels of analysis from molecules and cells to neural circuits and behavior. Students typically study neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and cellular and molecular neuroscience, alongside coursework addressing how the nervous system develops, processes information, and is affected by injury or disease. Laboratory and project-based training often introduces techniques used to record neural activity, image brain structures, and analyze neural and behavioral data. As a dual program, this track is generally structured to give students exposure to complementary institutions or perspectives within neuroscience, broadening the scope of training beyond a single department. The discipline underlies much of modern biomedical research into neurological and psychiatric conditions, and understanding of nervous system function informs approaches to diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation. Graduates commonly pursue careers in research laboratories, biomedical and pharmaceutical companies working on neurological therapies, and clinical or diagnostic settings, or continue into doctoral research in neuroscience. The program is delivered in French, runs for two years, and has a yearly tuition of 250 EUR, with a start in September. Students entering this track typically have a background in life sciences, and the dual structure of the program is intended to broaden their exposure to neuroscience research and training across different institutional settings.
